Version 0.10.0 of @tybys/wasm-util introduces subtle improvements for developers working with WASI in browser environments and utilizing WebAssembly utilities. While the core functionality remains consistent with version 0.9.0, reflected in the shared dependency on tslib and overall description, the key changes lie in the updated development dependencies and potentially, internal code adjustments. Specifically, version 0.10.0 shows an addition of @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin, @typescript-eslint/parser, eslint-config-standard-with-typescript, eslint-plugin-import, eslint-plugin-n, and eslint-plugin-promise. This suggests a stronger focus on code quality, maintainability, and adherence to TypeScript best practices through enhanced linting and static analysis. This increased rigor might translate to fewer bugs and improved long-term stability for users of the library.
Although developers updating from 0.9.0 might not notice immediate user-facing feature additions, the benefits stem from a more robust and well-maintained codebase underneath. The presence of more comprehensive ESLint configurations suggests a commitment to consistent coding style across the project. The bump in the internal unpackedSize from 770258 to 771977 indicates an almost unnoticeable increase of only about 1.7KB, possibly from added comments or slight logic tweaks to increase code clarity. With no changes needed in the main code that uses the library, developers don't need to worry about backward-compatibility issues. Released a year later, v0.10.0 is the safer bet for developers using the library.
